Business Travel Market, the conference and exhibition for European travel buyers revealed its conference programme this week.The two-day conference held on 16 and 17 June 2010 at London’s ExCel will feature 20 sessions across four programmes. These have been developed with industry bodies ITM, ACTE and HBAA. The fourth programme sees the return of the popular ‘maverick’ seminar which will discuss future proofing, the resurgence of trail travel and a ‘wild card’ session.Richard Gooding, CEO of London City Airport will open proceedings on 16 June and a speaker will address the delegates in a key note speech the day after. The full list of speakers will be announced on 9 April.Adam Coulter, Business Travel Market’s conference producer, said: “The global recession and the impact it has had on travel patterns has changed the travel landscape, perhaps permanently. The conference programme has been put together to reflect those changes and tackle the key issues affecting European travel buyers today.He added: “We hope that the themes we are exploring over the course of the conference will provide guidance to buyers, suppliers and PAs on how to navigate that changed landscape - and predict what’s in store for the next few years.”Other discussions will be around changing communication and meeting methods; learning how business operates in China, India, Brazil and gulf states and a green themed seminar focusing on the post-Copenhagen landscape.
